The super retailer Walmart is now in the Funeral Business. This could be a major blow to the casket companies and an already distressed funeral industry. Walmart is selling caskets ONLINE and acting as an assistant funeral director.
Contrary to the popular belief the funeral industry is recession proof, the super retailer move indicates a demand for discounted caskets. Many funeral homes in the face of decreasing sales have increased their prices and have been reluctant to embrace lower cost funerals. Not to embrace the low cost funeral now may put the traditional funeral home out of business.
This move is a a plus for the Funeral consumer and negative for traditional casket companies, specifically, Batesville Casket Company, and the York Casket Company.

The book Rest in Peace Insiders Tips to the Low Cost Less Stress Funeral outlines and predicts an explosion of online caskets.
Caskets are only sold online and are limited to Geographic areas with specific conditions.
This service will help the consumer with lower funeral cost and funeral expenses.
